Yes, the man who was a nurse at the VA hated our veterans.
Sick, vile lies from professional liar @RepTimBurchett of KNOXVILLE — denigrating Americans protesting a state-sanctioned execution.
Shameful.

Good start. Now escort ICE to the airport.
Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Gov. Walz: "What side do you want to be on? The side of an all-powerful federal government that can kill, injure, menace, and kidnap its citizens off the street, or the side of a nurse for a VA hospital who died bearing witness to such government?"

When you live in a Top-down political movement you cannot comprehend people volunteering for each other.
James O'Keefe says he's never seen anything so organized as the anti-ICE movement, observers--he seems to think this term is code--everywhere he goes. Who is paying for it??? he demands to know. It's like he can't even imagine people caring for one another.

They only get involved because someone is paying them, so they assume *other* people would only get involved because someone is also paying them.

The civil rights movement called its protests "demonstrations" because they were meant to demonstrate to the general public just how evil the status quo was and how depraved its defenders were.
ICE is actually worse than Connor -- he had to be goaded into overreaching, they're doing it on their own

Huge scandal that Minneapolis has been crawling with terrorists this whole time. They've been living among us undercover as poets and nurses. And would've continued to, had it not been for the work of our bravest child kidnappers

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.
